It may just be that Im not use to it yet but it feels and sounds like my 4wd in engaged when I turn the front wheels all the way. It almost seems as though they are sliding, just like it should in 4wd. Is it because they turn so tightly so it doesnt allow them to roll like I was use to in my truck? I've switched it to 4wd and it is noticeably different. Maybe Im just over analyzing it since Im still new to the lib. |

I may be mistaken but it could just be because at full lock your front wheels are almost perpendicular to your rear wheels so its as if your rear wheels are pushing forward while your front ones are sideways cause the front tires to almost skid until you turn the wheel back. It's even more noticeable with larger tires because of the increased surface area. Again, I could be wrong tho. Sent from my iPhone 5 |

Only downfall is in the rain on a slippery road I notice the front slides, but still the tightest turns I've seen lol |

Thanks for the information guys. Tight turning radius is exactly what I was thinking but just wanted to be sure! |
